What To Serve With It

I love pairing my steak tips with grilled vegetables—they add a smoky char that balances the rich meat perfectly. Creamy mashed potatoes are another go-to, since their smooth texture complements the hearty steak bites so well. If you’re looking for a simple yet satisfying meal, these sides won’t disappoint.

Grilled Vegetables Pairing

When you’re serving up juicy homemade steak tips, grilled vegetables are a perfect match—they add color, flavor, and balance to your plate. I love tossing zucchini, bell peppers, and asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper before throwing them on the grill. The smoky char pairs so well with the savory steak, and it’s an easy way to sneak in some veggies. Sometimes, I’ll sprinkle garlic powder or a squeeze of lemon for extra zing. It’s all about keeping it simple but delicious. Trust me, once you try this combo, it’ll become your go-to meal.

Creamy Mashed Potatoes

Nothing beats a side of creamy mashed potatoes alongside those juicy steak tips—it’s comfort food at its best. I love how the buttery, smooth texture complements the savory flavor of the meat. To make them, I boil peeled potatoes until tender, then mash them with butter, warm milk, and a pinch of salt. Sometimes I’ll add a touch of garlic or sour cream for extra flavor. It’s simple but always a crowd-pleaser. Whenever I serve this combo, it feels like a warm hug on a plate. Trust me, once you try it, it’ll become your go-to pairing too!
